One type of failure was buckling, meaning sudden lateral deformation of a slender structure when subjected to excessive axial compressive stress or plate subjected to pressure loading. Buckling analysis was used to determine the critical load factors of a structure and their corresponding buckling mode ...
Turbulent channel flow is one of the most fundamental wall-bounded shear flows and it has been widely used to study the structure of near-wall turbulence. Many DNS calculations have been carried out and produced a lot of informative data, which has contributed considerably to the improvements of...
Using ANSYS Fluent, this study investigates the efficacy of a step solar desalination unit. We perform this CFD endeavor and analyze it using CFD simulations. The present model consists of a small chamber with a sloped glass surface on both sides and steps within it, with salt water flowing ...
The purpose of this study is to use the combination of analytical resuspension model and CFD flow model to predict concentration levels and its variability in a complex urban environment. CFD model can resolve areas where resuspension happens in detail, while analytical model of resuspension add ...
Surface roughness significantly influences the resuspension process. In this study, the surfaces were modeled as smooth, no-slip walls, with roughness effects incorporated into the resuspension model through the parameter\({u}_{{th}}^{* }\). A zero-gradient condition was applied at the outlet ...
At first the flap shape meaning rigid or elastic types and the flap length is analyzed in 2D for a representative wind turbine airfoil. The 3D study investigates the effect of the radial position and extension along the blade span. For this purpose the DTU 10 MW reference wind turbine has ...
Transitional flow has a special meaning in N-S and I recommend you don't use it to refer to flows that are neither viscous nor inviscid. The way you use the term transitional flow... just means any flow. I adapt a quote from one of my advisors for this purpose: Saying you are writ...
While the whale-inspired fin offers more maneuverability and stability, the study also showed that conventionally grooved fins could be more suitable for speed generation or “drive” in surfing parlance. This could suggest that they perform best in wave conditions where speed generation and increased...
The term “financial derivative” is based on the meaning of the English word “derive”. It is, therefore, a kind of derivative of a particular asset. In our case, it is a derivative of the selected financial instrument traded on one of the world exchanges. We also call this financial ...
The purpose of this work is to study the effect of initial Re, by altering the nozzle diameter (Dj), on the far field development of the jet in a simplified cold model. The existence of the irregular-shaped secondary air channels brings an extra challenge compared to axisymmetric cases. Mor...
